Gobblers Knob, is just about Halfway between Backaches House and Mine!! I've been through Punxsytawney (Spelling?) Many Times on My Way to Hunting Camp!!

My youngest sister is a groundhog, born on groundhog's day.

My Dad always purchased a pair of sunglasses Feb 1st and instructed my sister to wear them on her birthday.

She called me this morning and said she saw her shadow, she must have tossed her sunglasses

You guys are going to love this. The animal activists wanted them to use a mechanical groundhog instead of Punxsutawny Phil. They said it's cruel to make him come out of his den. The little guy has a heated den they feed him fresh grass etc. This groundhog is babied more than my dogs are. Sometimes I just wonder what people are thinking........

So True Backache!! His Den is actually in an Office Right Next to the Mayors Office in the Municipal Building!! Phil is Treated like a King, the Folks from PETA have been Officially Invited to Come and See His Living Arrangements and how He's Treated, and None has Ever Shown!!!
